The restaurant itself is very clean and spacious. The tables were spaced (for me) a good distance so I didn't have to listen to other diners' conversations. You order and pay at the counter and they bring your food to you. The cashiers (there were two to handle the lunch crowd) were courteous and friendly. The menu is what you'd expect from a typical sandwich shop: regular sandwiches, soups of the day, salads, specialty sandwiches and daily specials. I got the Reuben and my date got the French dip. The sandwiches are reasonably priced. The ingredients are fresh and there is an appropriate amount in the sandwich (not too skimpy and not bulging out the sides). I was going to be nutritionally responsible and only eat half of the sandwich, but I ate it all. It was that good! We got our food probably 10-15 minutes after we ordered which I felt was a reasonable amount of time. I'd happily eat here again so I guess it's a good thing it's not in my neighborhood, otherwise I'd be big as a house. read more

Food is fresh. But too expensive. For a sandwich and a bag of chips is $18.5? Third time here and last read more

Given the stellar reviews, I really wanted to like this Cafe. The staff is incredibly kind and friendly, very good vibes. The ambience is welcoming and also inviting. There's parking outside so it's not a stressful environment. However, the quality of the food and the taste isn't so good, it's very bland. The food is pricy and lacks flavors. It pains to give a bad review but I didn't enjoy the food, it's mediocre. I have had better sandwiches and salads elsewhere for less the price and also the same price. Therefore, I would not recommend this cafe. read more

Breakfast burrito was amazing!! 10/10 would recommend!! Service was good. Simple ambiance but quiet and clean

I can only speak of the salads here. My friend has been bringing "Joe's Salad creations" from here to our Friday potluck. Fresh ingredients, ripe sweet fruit, and creamy delicious dressings. read more

This is for the Chinese chicken salad. The vegetables are fresh and battered chicken are very tasty but the sesame powder (?) and dressing doesn't match the salad. I will be back to try the soup and sandwiches read more

This place is further from where I work than I typically go for lunch, but I was up in the area for an errand, and decided to try it. Glad I did. An egg salad sandwich is an egg salad sandwich? Not quite. a) lots of egg salad, cool. b) *green* lettuce, cool. c) a pickle, very cool. There's a place right around the corner that used to give pickle slices with their lunches, and when covid hit they stopped, and never started back up again. Don't think I didn't notice that! I'll be back to Vince's ... read more

I got a veggie sandwich. It's really bad. Would not recommend if you're looking for vegan friendly options. The bread is tough and soggy. The veggies are all dipped in pickle juice so it was so wet. And slimy juice was dripping off. Overall terrible. read more

Vince's Cafe - Veggie sandwich It's not good. - Delis Near Me - Fremont, California

First time trying this place and it's only down the street from my job so I was really hoping to like it. The service was like no other I have seen. I came right at the lunch rush and I waited in line less than 2 min with 3 people ahead of me. I ordered their salmon day special. It was a pasta with salmon and cauliflower. I liked it but nothing too memorable. The side options were a soup or salad. I went with the soup and it took the show! I never thought a chicken tortilla soup needed cheese but I've been missing out all my life. It added a saltiness and gooeyness that I've never had before. Once ordered I waited maybe 5 mins. They had about 10-15 people working at once. You can see right into their kitchen and it was a well oiled machine. Really happy I found this place. I'll be back to try their Sanwhiches or any other specials they might have. read more

Vince Cafe has been in Southern Fremont for years, as this is a very popular place to grab lunch from the local businesses. They are very spacious inside and they have outdoor seating too, with plenty of parking. They have a wide range of fresh items, such as cold & hot sandwiches, burgers, fries, soups & salads & even pasta. Their menu does change, but their cold sandwiches are pretty consistent. Because all of their items are freshly made, it can take a while for your food to be prepared, so you should only come here if you have a longer lunch break. Also if you come here during the peak lunch hour, they can be very crowded. If you want to pay with your credit card, the minimum purchase is $10. As for the food, they're good & fresh, and worth the price that you pay for; and you're supporting a local business. read more

The food is pretty good and consistent. The turkey burger and fries are my go to when hungry. The Chinese chicken salad used to be until they changed the dressing, then went back to the original dressing, but no longer provide a couple pieces of sourdough like they used to. Still good, but the burger is a far better deal. read more

I'm a bit of a latecomer in discovering this place, but glad that I did! Started coming here when my job switched to remote work and I could start going to places around Fremont whose hours are limited to the breakfast and lunch crowd. While Vince's might seem like a run-of-the-mill sandwich shop, their daily specials set the place apart from other options. These specials aren't just posted and left up for weeks at a time -- they're updated everyday. And they get updated on the website everyday as well, so it's well worth checking out. The caveat here is that will often run out of the daily specials, so arrive early if there's something that catches your eye on their website. For the specials, Vince's comes up with some nicely creative sandwiches as well as entree dishes. Their pork sandwiches are especially good, and the entree portions are generous. The sandwich specials come with fries as well as a choice of soup or salad. Unlike some other delis that cater to the lunch crowd or chain stores, it seems that the food at Vince's is made on-site rather than shipped and reheated. Even by inflationary standards, the food at Vince's ain't cheap. But, the portions are large enough for nearly two full meals, so it's not a bad value. read more

Vince's Cafe is an amazing place to visit if you have a short lunch or don't want to be too far away from the business park. The sandwiches are delicious and taste fresh (nothing feels like its been sitting for a long time) but what sets them apart are the daily specials. It keeps the place unique so you don't feel bad about visiting multiple times of the week. I highly recommend checking the website everyday to see what is available and to head there before noon - otherwise the specials will be sold out since they have quite the crowd. On a nice sunny day, the outdoor seating is really comfortable as well. All in all, a very nice and delicious lunch cafe to visit during a day in the office. read more

Vince's is a go to for the businesses in the area so it gets busy during the lunchtime hour. Pictures one of their specials 1/2 sandwich & 1/2 salad. I've gotten their California turkey before but pictured is their Club sandwich. It does the trick for a quick close spot during the work day but overall the sandwiches are average. My personal preference is warmed bread and cheese but this is your average cold cut sandwich. Their croutons in the salad are delicious though! They taste like they are freshly made. I will probably come back due to convince read more

Very nice people with a variety of choices for all types of food consumers. I ordered a Chinese Chicken Salad and it was shredded lettuce with slivered pieces of dry fried chicken and a sesame sauce for $12. It was a bit boring to me, as a suggestion to perhaps the owner reading this, maybe you could add mandarin oranges, red bell pepper, water chestnuts, roasted chicken slices versus repurposed chicken katsu, sesame seeds and a few fresh herbs like a little cilantro. Now that would really amp up this salad :-). Having said all that, I will come back to try something else because they have dutch, crunch rolls and lots of other items that did sound delicious. read more

Vince's cafe is a breakfast/lunch cafe tucked in the middle of business park in southwest Fremont. The owner, whose name is actually Joseph is a long time restauranteur in the Fremont area and does quite the lunch crowd in addition to specialties and Asian inspired dishes. This review is for a recent catering event that Vince's Cafe hosted at their facility for a wedding reception. At our special weekend event not only was there plenty of parking, but because most of the businesses were closed it was quiet and sort of private. Vince's provided unlimited coffees, sodas, and teas along with a no-host bar. The appetizers were an eclectic collection of perfectly crispy pot stickers, and trendier marinated kebabs, all with a variety of dipping sauces. I ate thinking that was the main meal, because it was good enough and in sufficient quantity to be the dinner. Then came dinner. An array or rices, noodles, and vegetarian options. The honey walnut prawns were popular, light and crispy and covered and just enough sweet walnuts and sauce. The highlight was the crispy chicken salad with their signature dry mustard dressing that had an nice warmth and kick. The liquid dressing is served in the side so as not to soak the lettuce or chicken. In the center of it all was anicely arranged fruit platter in the shape of a heart, perfect for our celebrating guests. 5 stars for far exceeding expectations, and making the day easy and enjoyable for us. read more

I've honestly only come here for lunch and always want to try their specials or burgers - BUT can't stop getting my fave sandwich every time I walk out of this damn place... This is a legit hole in wall, mom & pop owned shop serving a mix mash of different foods, anything from short ribs on mashed potatoes TO honey walnut prawns TO sandwiches & burgers...YES it's weird, but it somehow freakn works.... Super fast service, you look at the menu - order - pay - get a number - find a seat or wait for your to go. Line looks long but will move fast. Food will also come out fast which is always a plus, if you get a sandwich (to go) it'll pretty much be ready when you get to the register to pay. I always get the California turkey sandwich which comes on a YUMMY Dutch crunch bread that just does wonders + Generous amount of turkey + lettuce + avocado...then I add sprouts AND a cup of soup which can be a hit or miss. Sometimes the soup is good, but most of the time it can be a little too watery - def. made in house if that tells you anything...all in all - the sandwich alone makes me happy! read more

I've been coming to this place for a little over a year now and will likely bring my future grandkids here.. the food is seriously just that good! A simple yet exciting menu has me wanting to try something new with every visit! My go to is the chicken breast sandwich; comes with fries and a soup/salad all for under $20. I add bacon and avocado to mine and it never disappoints (would take a picture but a little too late - maybe next time). The staff is super friendly and provides exceptional service every single time. I don't know anyone's name there but I swear we're all really close friends as soon as I walk in lol. On a serious note, I want to thank the Vince's staff for being a reliable source for quality, affordable lunch options in Fremont. Customer for life! read more

Breakfast is amazing here. The service is top notch. Favorite place to go on work days.

Casual Togos-like walk-up-and-order experience. Probably one of the best and freshest turkey sandwiches. Fast service and clean!

"I can make this better at home." That pretty much sums up our lunch at Vince's Cafe. While I understand a simple cafe might not have the best quality ingredients or flavor profile, I expected so much more than what we got. The location is not necessarily a restaurant, but rented "building" space, surrounded by offices and industrial companies. Of course, the clientele are men and women with office badges and the simplicity of the menu helps improve efficiency when every customer is eating on the clock. I will say, however, that I don't appreciate "hollering" my order over an eye-level wall to a person I can barely make eye contact with. For our lunch, the hubby and I both went for the half sandwich and cup of soup combination. He got the chili and crab salad sandwich and I chose the chicken noodle soup and California turkey specialty. In less than two minutes, before we even sat down at our table, our food was brought over and from appearances, it looked decent. However, I took one bite of the California turkey sandwich and instantly washed it down with water. The un-toasted bread was not only horrendously thick, but also tasted as dry as the desert. The thin coating of boring ol' mayonnaise didn't help and the turkey was ice cold. Everything about this sandwich spelled mediocre. As for the salty soup, seeing the perfectly cubed pieces of chicken and vegetables made me suspect its freshness. If you told me the soup came straight from a can, I would wholeheartedly believe you. I suppose the hubby chose the better combo because he didn't criticize his meal as much. The crab salad didn't suffer from the "dryness" like my sandwich and the chili was more flavorful than my soup, although he did leave half of the bowl unfinished. Overall, I was extremely unimpressed with Vince's Cafe. The hubby and I are fans of simple meals, but the lack of effort in preparing them and the bland flavors were beyond disappointing. read more

Hungry? Looking for a bargain? You can go to Vinces and pay 17 dollars for 2 eggs?!?! Not a bargain.

This is a no frills, simple cafe. We stopped in for breakfast. The breakfast menu is small and to the point. I ordered the english muffin sandwhich with ham and extra cheese. I enjoyed it. My husband got the traditional egg breakfast with sourdough toast and bacon. The breakfast potatoes were the best. Seasoned with salt and pepper and tasted like true homestyle cooking. Fyi, you cannot order lunch items here and breakfast time. Overall, I would eat here again. read more

Cash and card accepted. Vince's is on the corner in a business park and offers lot parking. It kind of blends in with the office buildings but look for the patio tables, chairs, and umbrellas. This place offers great breakfast foods as well as sandwiches, salads, soups, burgers, and snacks for lunch. It is always crowded during lunch so if you're pressed for time I would order ahead or go during off times. I love coming here for the food and the people so I definitely recommend it. I really like their bacon, cheese, and avocado burger with fries and a side salad. read more

Ordered a tri tip sandwhich with special sauce and clam chowder. Tri tip had that charred flavor and was really tender and juicy. The cheese was melted perfectly on both sides and the bread was crispy and not too oily. It was actually put together very nicely. Chowder was also super creamy and flavorful. I took a sip and immediately wanted more. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere read more

I've been coming here for years and this place is an absolute gem. The business parks surrounding Vince's Cafe are enormously spoiled to have this as a lunch option. The food is excellent, and the new and rotating "specials of the day" are what keeps me coming back. The pork belly sandwich with roasted corn salsa last week is what prompted me to finally write a review. Easily one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life. My God. The thing is, given the prime location near all the business parks, and that it is the only walkable place to eat, they could easily survive by just selling mediocre lunch. But the don't. You can tell they are passionate about their food and it really shows. read more

Great mom and pop place. Their sandwiches are a little on the smaller side, but the taste is spot on. California Turkey: Clean taste, and doesnt leave you feeling super bloated. I wish it was a little big bigger for $7.45. Will be back again to try their sandwiches. read more

Very out of the way in an industrial park, luckily I work just around the corner !

Didn't know what to expect since it was in a business park building, but I was pleasantly surprised! I got the two egg breakfast, got them poached, ham or bacon, potatoes and toast (I chose an English muffin). I loved the sliced red potatoes. What a refreshing experience. I've never had such fancy, potatoes for breakfast. Cooked perfectly and they went so nicely with the ham! The eggs were pretty cool. They spun it around and around in boiling water--never seen them so white and with a light film of egg white. I was taking a picture of the spread but my phone battery decided to take a rest at the same time. Will have to see if the pic saved before it died. Food was delicious, service was great. They had lots of tables and space They also had WiFi. Glad I stopped in! read more

Your basic office sandwich place. They do a pretty good job of getting the food out fast and sometimes have good soup. So considering that this is a basic sandwich place, it's not bad. But if you're looking for amazing gourmet sandwiches, I'd suggest you keep looking. One plus is that they have dutch crunch bread, which I love. You also have to specifically ask them to toast it for you. read more

Just moved my company to the area and have been recommended to this lunch cafe. Walked in around 1:30 (late lunch) and the place was pretty empty (total plus side for lunch cafes in business parks). Ordered a Reuben sandwich (my favorite) and it was brought out super quick! Only issue, first bite was amazing, perfect bread to sauce to meat ratio, however, second bite, not as warm, third bite not warn at all, the cheese was not melted on bit, bummer! I won't write them off yet, but hopefully next round will be a solid 5 star Update: have been trying their daily specials and they are AMAZING! Honey walnut prawns, grilled ham and cheese sandwich, crispy salmon wrap, all spectacular! read more
